Rebirth 1994: Football Situation

Chapter 706 Stimulation
In later generations, some people say that Mourinho offended everyone in the football circle-the boss, the coach, the opponent's fans, but he never had any unpleasantness with the players, especially the players under him- ——The crazy side of this madman is only shown in front of his opponents. For his players, he is the best teacher and best friend.

To be able to get this evaluation, of course, is not something that can be obtained casually. It is through Mourinho’s equal communication with players, treating them with an open and honest attitude, and giving respect to each other while gaining respect from the other party—— Without a free lunch, without giving, it is impossible to get the support and love of so many players.

As it is now, Mourinho asked Ibrahimovic if they could perform well in the second half. If they felt they could perform well, they had to do it. If they felt unsure, they said it. Mourinho chose to believe in the players. Then the players will not let him down.

After the start of the second half, Olympiacos still chose to attack. The advantage in the first half made them think that Newcastle is exhausted now. As long as they seize the opportunity to score the second goal, Newcastle will be powerless.

More importantly, the head coach of Olympiacos believes that a one-goal lead is not safe-Newcastle has too many stars who can change the game with a flash of inspiration. If they were beaten to death with a single stick, maybe a certain star of the opponent had a flash of inspiration before the end of the game, and the team's efforts throughout the game would be wiped out.

In the first round, Olympiacos drew with Deportivo in the away game. If they can beat Newcastle, the most popular team in this group, at home, they will occupy an extremely favorable position in the competition for qualifying from this group.

It is a rare thing for Olympiacos to be able to occupy the first place in the group after two rounds.

After Janus came on the field, Essien withdrew to the front of the defense and began to play the role of a pure defensive midfielder. Although he is not as experienced as Makelele, his abundant physical fitness and strong body can make up for this. At one point, after his wide range of running in the midfield, Newcastle's defensive passivity began to be pulled back a little bit.

Franck Ribery made several beautiful breakthroughs on the left, and Olympiacos defenders had no choice but to focus on him. In fact, in the first half of the game, Franck Ribery was the most threatening man in Newcastle's midfield. After losing to the national team once, Ribéry tried his best to prove himself in the Champions League and the Premier League. He is also the best player among Newcastle's frontcourt players without the national team competition task.

Just as two Olympiacos players were pressing towards Ribery at the same time, Ribery did not continue to bottom, but dunked the ball back, and a beautiful wide-range transfer gave the ball to the right side. Nie Fei.

Maicon came up from the sideline and drew the attention of an opponent's defender. Nie Fei took advantage of this moment to suddenly start, dribbling the ball towards the only midfielder in front of him.

In the first half of the game, although Nie Fei didn't show much, he observed that this midfielder likes to grab ahead of time. Although this increases the suddenness, if he fails to grab, the consequences will be very serious.

And now Olympiacos has two defenders attracted to the left, and two defenders are defending Ibrahimovic and Drogba. As long as he can get rid of this guy in front of him, then there will be a smooth road in front of Nie Fei.

The midfielder was surprised when he saw Nie Fei suddenly start to jump towards him, because he knew that at this moment, he didn't have any teammates around him to support him, and Nie Fei was a well-known first-class midfielder after all. , but the midfielder felt relieved when he saw the speed at which Nie Fei dribbled the ball. Fei's sudden start in midfield is a must to get rid of others.

"The timing was good, he is one of the best attacking midfielders in Europe, but he doesn't seem to be in the right shape."

While thinking, the midfielder went up to meet him. When he was close to the three-meter range of Nie Fei, Nie Fei suddenly staggered, and the ball left his control range.

The midfielder stretched out his foot directly and stabbed at the ball-since the opponent made a mistake in dribbling the ball, how could he be worthy of his good luck if he kept coming down-and now Newcastle is aggressively attacking and the backcourt is empty. If a counterattack is launched, then it is very likely to expand the score to two to zero.

While stretching out his feet to steal the ball, he also raised his head to observe the situation in the frontcourt. At this moment, Nie Fei took a step forward, quickly pulled the ball back, let the opponent miss it, and then lightly slid the ball Throwing forward, the whole person rushed forward quickly, and walked around the midfielder!
"Beautiful goal! Nie Fei finally had an eye-catching performance after being silent for most of the game!"

Nie Fei, who dribbled the ball into the penalty area, had an extremely wide field of vision. The opponent's two defenders would not be able to stop him for a while. As long as he took a step forward, he would have countless ways to score the ball into the area guarded by the panicked goalkeeper. door!

Nie Fei observed the goalkeeper's position and watched the opponent halfway through the attack—a good opportunity!

Nie Fei, who was about to shoot, suddenly felt that he was flying up, and then fell on the lawn and rolled several times in a row - the opponent's left back Georgatos was unable to stop Nie Fei's shot, so he took a risk and fell. Flying shovel, he shoveled Nie Fei to the ground without shoveling the ball!
The referee's whistle sounded, and he turned his face and ran to the scene of the incident, dispersed the excited Newcastle players rushing towards Georgatos, and then showed the bald left back a red card!
Huge boos rang out from the stands, but there was no objection to the penalty. A side tackle with such a large range of motion in the penalty area would definitely receive a red card, not to mention that Nie Fei is still lying on the ground with a painful expression on his face.

"Damn bald guy!" Pei Wei jumped up from the coach's bench and yelled at Georgatos who was walking off the court: "You bastard! Do you play football like this? No wonder you bastard Without hair, have you done too many immoral things?"

His yelling was really too loud, and he yelled in English again. The referee came over and showed him a red card without saying a word, and sent him off as well.

"Damn it, this is the second red card I've ever received in my life." Pei Wei stood up from the coach's bench cursingly, walked to the locker room, and gave Georgatos a sharp middle finger .

Behind him, Mourinho explained to the referee: "Don't you think the foul just now was too bad? My players are still lying on the ground... My assistant coach is not targeting the opponent's players, but because of this bad foul. foul."

"I will consider explaining for him in the game report. But now, I can only show him a red card, otherwise the conflict will intensify." The referee replied, and then walked onto the pitch.

"How is Nie Fei's injury?" Mourinho asked the team doctor.

"I'm afraid you have to make a substitution." The team doctor shrugged his shoulders. "He is very smart. He used the roll in the air to remove most of his strength, so his injury is not serious, but he will definitely not be able to play this game."

"That's okay, we will win this game, as long as it doesn't affect the rest of the game." Mourinho turned around and called Dyer on the bench: "Get ready to play."

The number one penalty shooter, Shearer, was not on the field. Ibrahimovic scored the ball into the dead corner of the goal against the boos of the Greek fans. Newcastle equalized the score!
Now the advantage is all on Newcastle's side, tying the score, and occupying the advantage in numbers, coupled with Nie Fei's injury, the Newcastle players were excited, and the fatigue in the first half was wiped out.

In the face of Newcastle, who suddenly became aggressive on the offensive, Olympiacos, who had one less player, could only defend passively. In the No. 207 minute of the second half, Ribéry made a beautiful breakthrough and forced the opposing Kostolas to foul. Expelled from the field, free kick expert Hart used a wonderful direct free kick to overtake the score!

Newcastle, who had overtaken the score, celebrated wildly, ignoring the overwhelming curses from the Olympiakos fans in the stands-the best counterattack to this curse is to continue to attack and silence them with goals!

The frantic Newcastle completely controlled the advantage on the field in the next game. Olympiacos, who had less than two players, could only be suppressed in their own half and endured Newcastle's indiscriminate bombing. Drogba played in No. In the 609th minute, after receiving a cross from Maicon, he scored Newcastle's third goal with a powerful header three meters in front of the goal, and Newcastle sealed the victory.

But Newcastle did not stop the pace of attack, their almost frantic attack scored the fourth goal before the end, Ibrahimovic's powerful long-range shot in front of the penalty area flew into the dead corner of the goal, Newcastle in a crazy second half Beat the home team to shame and win two consecutive victories in the Champions Cup!

If Nie Fei hadn't been injured, maybe Olympiacos wouldn't have been so miserable, but unfortunately, Georgatos kicked himself off the field, and at the same time destroyed Olympiacos' last hope of victory .

After the game, the head coach of Olympiacos said unconvinced: "When 11 men were against 11 men, we even took the lead." Mourinho immediately counterattacked: "If Nie Fei was not injured, maybe our goal would have been scored. More."

The media commented: "Nie Fei's injury stimulated the Newcastle players...they are undoubtedly already a strong team, especially when they are stimulated."
